A FLEXIBLE LAB SOLUTION TO SCALE-UP

Scaling a life sciences company is an exciting yet uncertain journey. After graduating from shared lab environments like StartLab, companies need their own dedicated space—but the burden of a long-term lease can be a risk too far.

That’s where Biopôle SA steps in. Our private laboratories are designed specifically for growing ventures who need more autonomy and space—without the weight of a 10-year lease. These fully fitted-out labs offer the infrastructure of a permanent space, but with lease terms that match the rhythm of scale-up growth.

At Biopôle, we understand the unique pressures facing life sciences companies. Capital-intensive, regulation-heavy and commercially complex—this sector needs more than just real estate. By offering tailored private laboratories, we reduce the risks of growth so you can focus on what matters most: advancing science, improving lives, and building a company that lasts.

COMING SOON: NEW PRIVATE LABORATORY SPACES IN THE TRYPTO BUILDING

Biopôle SA is expanding its offering with 18 brand-new private laboratory units, from 30 to 75 m² each, available from October 2025. Unlike our fully serviced StartLab and Superlab facilities, these labs are designed for companies that are ready to operate independently while still benefiting from the collaborative spirit of a shared facility. With flexible contracts, they offer an ideal next step for ventures seeking autonomy without being locked into a long-term commitment.

The new private labs come with shared amenities that encourage interaction and resource efficiency, including a meeting room and kitchenette. Additional shared infrastructure includes an autoclave and washing room and a facility equipped with two chemical fume hoods, together with a storage and a fridge rooms. The development will also feature 17 private offices, from 30 to 70 m² each, exclusively dedicated to our members using the lab facilities, thus offering a complete workspace solution.
